    Crawford assuming he beats Indongo has to be the aim. End of 2018. Taylor could be the guy to beat him.

    I fail to see how Davis hasnt been exposed sparring. Anyone with movement and decent speed would of shown a lot of flaws in Davis sparring.

    If they can make the burns fight for an eliminator i would go that route, huge Scottish show down, tough fight for a title shot tho, but i got taylor winning after that performance.

    I don't think Crawford will be at 140 then. His money fights are at WW

    Which is why the Eubanks should move heaven and earth to keep Junior as far away as possible from Zurdo Ramirez. :sisi1

    That's why he has a IBO title, he can fight Quinlan and an old past it AA.

    Wait for Crawford to go up, fight Burns next.

    Lol, I think it's really cute how some people refer to CEJ as a 'World' champion. The IBO is a very, very distant fifth in the pecking order.

    Nah I don't want to see that.

    100% Burns gets stopped, I don't want Ricky to take the fight. He's very close to retiring and what's the point in going out on a loss like that.

    Let him fight Crolla for $$$ and enjoy his retirement the guy has earned it.

    Taylor vs Crawford is what I want in 2018

    Ditch the Commonwealth title, and maybe have Burns as an eliminator matchup for one of the vacant belts -- perhaps even actually for one of the vacant belts -- once Crawford schools Indongo and moves up.

    I agree from Burns perspective, but from Taylor's perspective if he can get Burns next he should take it.
